Condits have been identified, holding them without trial in containment facilities

Department of Unified Protection shows its power during an operation that doesn’t go as planned in Seattle

Transport vehicle crashes and the conduits escape

DUP sets up roadblocks and won’t let anyone enter/leave

Lots of security systems are sent out and Seattle is turned into something reminisint of an airport

There are elevated walkways with search-lights and security cameras as well as checkpoints and scanners

Game has parallels to post-9/11 America setting

Security vs. freedom theme

DUP is like the TSA

DUP guards

DUP guards feature behavior similar to that of SWAT teams/trained military police

Others have a seemingly supernatural ability to shield themselves and move around quickly

Sucker Punch won’t elaborate on this further

Protagonist

Stars 24-year-old Native American Delsin Rowe

Delsin is the artistic type with a chip on his soldier

Fan of anti-authoritarian street art

Likes tagging buildings with his own art

Very much an average guy until the conduit-transport vehicle crashes

Delsin tries to help those in the wreck, and learns that he’s been a conduit all along with dragging an injured conduit from the area

Soon realizes that he can control smoke

Natural power lets him absorb other conduits’ power

Can use more than smoke power

Delsin is excited about his power unlike Cole

Gameplay

Delsin can take down different forward-operating bases run by the DUP around Seattle

Can get through these areas with force, but eliminating security systems is more effective

Smoke projectile at Delsin’s disposal

Also can perform a smoke-dash maneuver somewhat like Nightcrawler

Air ducts found all across Seattle

Can use the ducts to get around or climb like Cole

Another technique lets Delsin throw smoking fireballs

When Delsin descends, he can perform a “move” like Cole’s thunder drop

Forests act as the edge of the game world

Another move: smoke cloud; immobilize enemies

Can restock on smoke from chimneys, destroyed cars, and even tear gas canister
